Volume of a pyramid is (length * width * height) / 3
So we plug in the given information and solve. Let x = length and width since it's a square their measurements are the same.
84 = (x * x * 7) or 84 = 7x²
Divide both sides by 7 to isolate the squared variable.
x² = 12
Now square root both sides to isolate the variable
x = √12 which simplifies to x = 2√3
The measurements for the length and width of the base are 2√3 units or approximately 3.464 units.

What is the volume of the pyramid?
The volume of the pyramid is;
[tex]\rm Volume \ of \ pyramid=\dfrac{1}{3}\times height \times Base[/tex]
The pyramid shown below has a square base, a height of 7, and a volume of 84.
Substitute all the values in the formula
[tex]\rm Volume \ of \ pyramid=\dfrac{1}{3}\times height \times Base\\\\\rm84 =\dfrac{1}{3}\times height \times 7\\\\Height = \dfrac{84\times 3}{7}\\\\ Height = \dfrac{252}{7}\\\\Height =36[/tex]
The length of the side of the base is;
[tex]\rm Side\ length^2=height\\\\ Side\ length^2=36\\\\Side\ length^2=6^2\\\\Side\ length=6[/tex]
Hence, the length of the side of the base is 6 units.
